Default Trailer that fits JK?

I'm looking for a trailer that is military styled. But I'm not sure which ones will fit and which ones a Rubicon can handle. Any suggestions?

Edit: I also have motorcycles that I'd like to haul around. So a tailgate would be necessary... guess it could be modified to incorporate a tailgate if it doesn't originally have one.

That's perfect. What kind of hitch would I need to use one of those?

Edit: Thanks for moving the thread. I wasn't too sure where to put this topic haha.

i dont think the 416 is your best option , i have the Canadian M101 (same as the 416) and im not so sure a motor cycle ,let alone 2 will fit, (minus the lid of course)you would need to cut in a tailgate for sure, the US M101 may be a better option for your puposes, the only drawback to that is it is larger and heavier,and would not be the best for pulling down any tight trails, the sankey is prolly a good option as well,

here is my CND M101.


and the US.101


take a look at the trailer section over at expedition portals, you will be amazed at many of the trailer builds over there,

as for the what kind of hitch question? the military trailers will have a pintle hitch set up , tried true and bullet proof, some complain about the noise but i have not experianced that, if the trailer is balanced properly noise will not be an issue,
there are many options though , there are a few articulated off road hitch set ups like the '' lock and roll '' but i have seen too many of that style hitch twist and break , i do not want to be left stranded some where with a broken hitch,
